So, you'd rather play the watered-down version of a game on a machine using 7-year-old tech?

I was able to get them to pricematch when I used a coupon. I picked up Fable when it was $20 used w/ $10 off coupon, making it $8 or so. I checked and the price dropped to $15 so I had it adjusted, getting $5 back to make the total cost of it $3.

This is one of the few times I have to completely agree with you. I never got into PC gaming since I couldnt stand not being able to just turn on the game and start playing. And back in the day you had to load the games with what seemed like an endless line of floppy disks. What a pain in the ass. And then to play the best games you have to upgrade your system? Horse Shit I say! I am too lazy and cheap to do all that!

You guys are too much.

I mean, would I rather play this:



Or this:

$30 off Prototype 2 for PS3 & Xbox 360 Includes Prototype 2 and Prototype 2 - Blackwatch Collector's Edition $30 off Battlefield 3 for PS3 Includes Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 3 Limited Edition (Not Premium Edition) $20 off Mass Effect 3 for PS3, ,Xbox 360 & PC Includes Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect 3: N7 Collector's Edition $20 off Lollipop Chainsaw for PS3 & Xbox 360 (No Limited Editions) $15 off Select Mac Titles (Civilization V GOTY, Roller Coaster Tycoon Platinum, Call of Duty 4, Rage: Campaign Edition, Star Wars Mac Pack, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed) Offers limited to specific titles listed $15 0ff Pre-owned Madden NFL 12 or NCAA Football 12 for PS3 & Xbox 360 (No Limited Editions) $10 off Any Pre-owned Game $29.99 or above Any title in the pre-owned category on sale for $29.99 or above $20 off Tritton Primer Wireless Headset for Xbox 360 Tritton Primer headset SKU: 4525611

I got Mike from BB to post more info on the @gamer coupons regarding if collectors edition work on certain coupons. If the OP or MOD can edit the 1st post with this info, it would be helpful to fellow CAGs.

So yes Blackwatch collectors edition for prototype 2 and Mass Effect 3 N7 collectors edition do work with the coupons if you can find them in stock.

Good news about Prototype, but bummer that the Battlefield coupon won't work on the Premium edition. I got my very first magazine in the mail today as well, despite my @Gamer account saying the next mailing date was September 2nd. I'm in for BF3, Mass Effect 3, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Prototype 2 if they go $10 or less.

Definitely good news on the Prototype LE. Though I wouldn't mind getting the ME3 CE, but that is highly unlikely that there are any available. I am also hoping for a sale on Lollipop Chainsaw. Too bad Tekken vs SF never went on sale.

haha

I really never had an issue because since I'm into photography and graphic design I usually need to update my computer about every 5 years anyway. During that time I'm usually good to go unless I fry something. I just see it as worth it, I mean my GPU cost less than a console and even if you add in the ram it's less than a console. But with the same PC I get on the internet, watch tons of movies, edit my photos, create logos, edit movies, etc etc.

I built this computer for under $800 and it'll run BF3 nearly maxed out. Since that game was one of the benchmarks at the time I bought it, I should be good to go for a while.

I can, however, sympathize with the people who just don't want to mess with it. If you don't know what you're doing it's very daunting and will be far more expensive then is actually required.

Yep. And apparently you do to as I see you have Live and PSN accounts.

Cool. Though I'm guessing now that the P2 collector's edition will vanish even before the coupons go live.

Thanks htz.

Only one BB farthest from my area shows "In Store Only" for ME3 N7 CE. Wasn't expecting it to be OOS everywhere, so as tempting as it is, I might just get ME3 instead or just wait for a drop.

I got back into JC2 for a lil while. A friend and I kept making and uploading videos to YouTube from it. About the only reason I would try to play JC 2 on PC would be to try out the user made multiplayer mode.

Again using a coupon while PMing another stores' price is highly YMMV. So consider yourself lucky if you get a manager who doesn't give a crap and comes over and approves both portions of that transaction.

YMMV obviously, but I was at the Pleasant Hill, CA store yesterday and there were still two ME3 CEs sitting on the shelf with a $50 pricetag. I might snag one if I can get there before someone else does after the coupons go live (still waiting on digital delivery).

http://www.gamefly.com/Rent-Mass-Effect-3/146090/

Gamefly has Mass Effect 3 on sale for $14.99, both and

Just an fyi.

That I do know. My BB gives to shits about pm'ing but this may be asking for alittle too much. I post my results on monday

For those that want BF3 for the 360. Gamefly has it used for $15 currently and your bound to get the online pass so its a good deal.

didn't see it posted yet and I may be wrong here, but Best Buy has a 4 day(Fri-Mon) sale going on right now for some of the Mac games listed in the coupon(Rage,COD4, SWTFU). They're on sale for $15 and the coupon is for $15 off...if they stack come Sunday, possibly some free games for a Mac?

Just checked out my local BB. Prototype 2 standard edition is $49.99 and collector's edition is down to $59.99. For $10 more, might as well bite on the CE. But will there be a sale on P2 to make the deal sweeter? Bite this Sunday or wait it out?

Edit: Actually, I'll bite this Sunday. Forgot about BB's price match guarantee.
